Re: Introduction-Ryan
Well I want to be a Ranger to learn from the best, to be the best. I really admire the Ranger spirit to lead the way and to never ever give up and of course there's jumping out of planes and defending my country.
I originally wanted to sign for 35M and eventually go through SFAS but my DLAB was a few points short and I left MEPs unemployed.
Of course the entire recruiting station called me at MEPs trying to convince me to be a cook or repairman but I declined.
A few weeks later one of my recruiters offered me an Opt.40 contract, which I had completely forgotten about.
I did my research on Ranger history and eventually came to this website and I feel that this is what I should be a part of.
I guess my DLAB score was the best thing that could have happened to me!

Re: Introduction-Ryan
Who you talking too? You don't just walk into a room here and spout what you wish without addressing the person or persons you are speaking to - that might be good on your block or in your class but not on this Ranger site.Ryan555 wrote:11x Option 40 contract signed.
You read back a month of civilian introductions in this forum. That is your newest task. Your training has already begun. Each Ranger that takes the time to speak to you will be expecting a response - & you are being graded from Day 1.
Try reading this link (a few words by Ranger The Holmchicken written 9 years ago) - nothing has changed of what we expect.

Re: Introduction-Ryan
Ryan555 you are over due to respond and repost your announcement. I want you to come back each time to respond by acknowledging you have a new task.
However, if you are put back by what I've/we've said to you - it might be a good idea for you to drop your Opt 40 contract. If you can not deal with us here you will only quit down the line.

Re: Introduction-Ryan
Did not know you had a medical issue. Wait until it has subsided. Just do the run & ssitups. No pull-up or push-up. Let the shoulder recover.

Re: Introduction-Ryan
Ranger Jim,
I will wait till it no longer hurts, I must have tweaked my rotator cuff in just the wrong way. My shoulders are used to frequent weight training, yet I do a few sets of pushups and now they burn constantly.
